Upload the configuration file

[thomas.defise]

Hello,

First, here is my setup :

- 2* 5508 WLC in N+1 Mode running on version 8.3.132.0

- 2* 5508 WLC in SSO Mode running on version 8.3.132.0

When I download the configuration from the 5508 WLC in SSO I receive correctly the ".cfg" with the output of a "show run-config" but from the two 5508 WLC in N+1 mode, I receive the output of "show run-config startup-commands"

To get the configuration file, I connect on the WLC using the GUI, on Commands > Upload File and I select Configuration from the File Type drop down.

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

You can compare two back up using CLI as shown below

transfer upload mode tftp
transfer upload datatype config
transfer upload filename wlc-backup-2017-11-10
transfer upload path .
transfer upload serverip <TFTP_SVR_IP>
transfer upload start

Hello Rasika,

I have the same result. When I used the CLI, I also receive the "show run-config startup"

Is it due to a setting on the WLC ?

After having another look I think it's the SSO which is not normal.
Indeed, I'm able to either transfert the "config" on the "run-config" in CLI, But when I select "configuration" on the GUI I receive the "run-config startup" from the WLC not in SSO and "run-config" from the one in SSO.

At the end I know how to get what I need.
